I won't eat Swiss cheese without holes. Same here. It sounds weird, but the cheese seems to taste better when there's holes in them.
I get a kick out of one brand with holey swiss chess that tastes pretty good, and notice that the holes are all of the same diameter wherever they occur. Hmmm.

It was done in Switzerland and I doubt that taxes paid for the study.

The specific starter culture added to the milk imparts the flavor and holes. Everything done the product changes the flavor just as with wine & beer.
I had passed this article on to a cheese expert and was told that most modern cheeses have lost flavor due to stricter controls and pasteurization. Plus the feed for the animals has changed.
To: Cold Heart
Some people smuggle unpasteurized cheese out of Europe but the feds work very hard to catch them.
Frankly, I don't know what the big deal is. If someone wants it and knows there is a small risk, why should the feds care? Oh, I know. Silly me . . .

The TSA will also confiscate cheese if you try to carry it on a plane.
To: Red Badger
I hope this scientific study was paid for by taxpayers [sarcasm\]

I am not believing this one. My money is still on bacteria causing the holes.

They do use bacteria now days, but I think the article is really talking about originally in the old days........
